A couple of shots of my MPP. I'm not sure which model it is and after viewing 1/2 a doz or so others from searches, I'm still not quite sure. It's not a MkVIII. It looks like a MKVII at the front. I don't think it's any earlier?
A couple of things:
The gg isn't original, the seller told me this before purchase.
The lens is a Schneider Symmar 180 (convertible), badged Linhof.
There are two accessories shoes on the top. I've never seen this in any of the other images of MPP's I've looked at.
The range-finder is obviously missing but I believe some were factory shipped like this, at the buyers request?
The back: Is that the 'International' back, meaning standard dds's fit with no issues? The camera came with a polaroid 545i and Kodak Readyload which seem to fit fine but I've no film to go further than a simple physical fit test.

I'm waiting on acceptance to the MPP Users Club, where I was going to ask the same questions but that could take a week or two!
I've posted this on Large Format Forum, too, so hopefully can get some info, ta!
So, here's hoping.
